Since they ask every year, guess we'd better dumb this thing down so even the taters have a chance to understand.

If I were a jockey, I'd prefer:
A) riding a nag.
B) winning the Derby.
C) riding Secretariat to the Triple Crown.

Now here's one for the taters:
After 5 in a row, Clemson is a _____ to USC.
A) roadblock
B) speed bump
C) autobahn

To Gamecock Nation the answer is obvi. To the taters? Not so much. To them it's a brainteaser, a quandry. How do we know that? 'Cause they keep asking the same stupid question every year. LOL. Keep 'em guessing.

To offer an alternative suggestion:
"What would you enjoy more - Beating Clemson or winning the SEC?"
Definitely the SEC win.
As far as Clemson goes, I don't see this as an even trade off. Winning the SEC is tougher to accomplish than beating Clemson and offers a chance to be in the playoffs, so it is the more desirable goal.

Would you rather beat Clemson for big number 6 and lose the SEC East miserably, or win the SEC east and the SEC championship, but lose to Clemson horribly and give Clemsux bragging rights to be the only team to beat the SEC champions.

Some people used to not care what record we got as long as we beat Clemson. Let's see who hates Clemsux the most...

I dont live near many Clemson fans/grads, shit or SEC grads/CFB fans for that matter. I actually find it cool when I meet one of them (Clemson fans/grads) considering there aren't many. We are the lone southerners/CFB fans.

That said SEC title would help lead to a national title and that would be much better for the program.

This question is really difficult to answer. I absolutely consider winning the SEC to be more prestigious/important/other buzz words. The problem that I have is that I also don't want to deal with listening to Clemson fans talk about beating us the year we finally won it.

If you are in NYC, the alumni association meets at The Mason Jar on East 30th just off Park. The Mason Jar donated $50,000 to the university to be the official NYC Gamecock bar.

They have a huge alumni participant and have about 300 people for every game.

[quote=bcolinc;4235831]I can say this much. I'd love to win the SEC, but beating Clempson has become so fun. We beat them, we have a great offseason. We win the SEC (but lose to Clemson) we have a huge recruiting class and offseason, but have to deal with the "Clemson is the SEC champion" BS talk. I think we will beat Clemmy and take the SEC title in the same year. That way we can all sleep good at night. Besides, we all know we have been flirting with this idea for the past 3 years. The time is now.

This is the right answer. But it would have to be both, or no National Title anyway because
1) If we are good enough to win the National Title we would not lose to Clemson, and
2) If we lost to Clemson it is very doubtful that we would make the playoff anyway. Even if we did win the SEC.
